I'd say use Azure Websites: http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/home/scenarios/web-sites/ http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/home/scenarios/web-sites/. You can easily select one of the many frameworks/blogs/CMSes from a list, and install it. Azure will automatically get the latest version from the official website and set it up for you. The best part is that it's free to do this. Azure websites cost you nothing. If you need more power you can easily switch to dedicated servers, meaning that you have a lot more scalability. Oh, and it supports a wide range of languages. Not just .NET, but also Java, Python, node.js, PHP, etc.
